The Lavender Room at the Greene House Inn is a spacious east facing bedroom with an antique East Lake Victorian full size bed. Includes closet space, private seating and access to all common areas of the home. Two shared bathrooms are available.

Located in the center of it all in upstate New York, the Greene House Inn is nestled into the heart of Fort Plain. The Lavender Room in part of this 1885 Victorian.
Fort Plain is within easy driving distance of Cooperstown and the Baseball Hall of Fame, the cities of Albany, Amsterdam, and Utica.
It is located just about halfway between New York or Boston and Buffalo and would be an excellent stop off point for those traveling between those cities.
While Tony and Brendan are doing their best to keep the Greene House Inn feeling like a Victorian enclave, they recognize that guests will want some modern amenities and comfort. They continue to strive to ensure that techonology requirements are met for each guest.

We chose to live in Fort Plain because of its central location and all the things that people can do. Whether you enjoy outdoor activities, auctions, antiques, sightseeing, and more, Fort Plain will have something for you. Brendan and Tony will be more than happy to help you find something to do during your stay.

My stay with Brendan and Tony was even better than I expected! My boyfriend and I stumbled across The Greene House Inn when we were looking for a place to stay near Cooperstown because of a concert we were attending on a Saturday night at Brewery Ommegang. We didn't want to drive all the way back home (2 + hours) and made the decision to make the trip on a Friday night and stay until Sunday. Brendan and Tony were so accommodating! They didn't mind our late, 10 PM arrival on Friday. Brendan greeted us with a smile and showed us around his beautiful Victorian house. The lavender room was beautiful, spacious, private, and comfortable. This was my first stay in a bed and breakfast, and I was a little weary about privacy, but I felt as comfortable as home. The linens and towels were beyond clean, and smelled wonderful. They even provided us with local, homemade soap. That night we split a bottle of wine with Brendan, ate pizza and laughed while sitting in the parlor telling stories and getting to know one another. The next two mornings we were greeted with homemade muffins! Once of our favorite parts of the house was the front porch, where we sat on their adirondack chairs and drank our coffee while waking up a bit both mornings. Brendan and Tony offered us breakfast, lunch and dinner, we felt so welcome the entire time. We can't wait to go back to Fort Plain again and will stay no where else besides with our new buddies, Brendan and Tony.... And Sasha their beyond well-behaved adorable little pup.

Brendan and Tony were the perfect hosts! Their home is beautiful--very inviting and comfortable. Both were very willing to share ideas for local day trips and provide a history of the house and the surrounding area. A short drive to Cooperstown for baseball fans, without the Cooperstown prices. Highly recommended!

We greatly enjoyed our very brief stay. We arrive late (close to midnight), but that was no problem. Someone was up waiting for us, showed us to our room, the bathroom, etc. The room was great, spacious, beautifully decorated, and mostly comfortable (the mattress was good, just not what I like). The whole house is really beautiful, and when walking the dog in the neighborhood we were able to see that the whole area is quiet and serene. In the morning, our hosts provided some amazing homemade muffins that were greatly appreciated for the long drive that we had to make. I would absolutely stay here again anytime I was in the area.

What a wonderful time!! Brendan and Tony are exceptional hosts and we had a great time. We had originally come for Cooperstown (which is a hop and skip away) Hall of Fame Weekend, but when we arrived and saw the Florida (where we are from) flag hanging at the house, we knew we were home for a few days. Brendan's knowledge of the area had us taking a couple of small trips to go antiquing and sightseeing, while Tony's cooking made sure we were back for dinner (Brendan did make an excellent chili one night). We would highly recommend The Greene House Inn and we are planning for return visits!! Thank you Brendan, Tony, and Sasha. Cheers! JP & Angela

Because of our late arrival, we haven't meet Val in person. But that's no trouble at all, because the place is well prepared, and is brilliant. Local restrurant and supermarkets are just around the corner, the town has an easy connection to highway 90 and beautiful route 20. Plenty of space to accomodate 8 persons and 2 cars. Everything was taken good care of. It is simply a great place to stay for big group.

From our very first correspondence Val made us feel very welcome. The rental was perfect for our family to stay together while we were in the area to celebrate our friend's wedding. We don't spend a lot of time together as a family and this was the perfect place to relax and spend time together.

It was wonderful staying at Val's. We were made to feel very welcome and comfortable. She provided us with best directions. Very quiet home. Kitchen is well furnished. Would love the opportunity to stay there again.

The Blue Room is a spacious accommodation with a queen size bed. If desired, the adjoining Twins' Room can be reserved at a special rate. The space is private enough that if the other room is not needed, your privacy is assured.

After reading a few other reviews before choosing Brendan & Tony, I knew these were our guys. My girlfriend and I were looking for a place between Boston and Ontario, so this was a perfect middle ground. Upon arriving, we were able to find this place easily and super welcoming since they had posted a flag of Massachusetts for us! The house is an absolutely gorgeous Victorian that you'll never forget. Brendan and Tony were very friendly and hospitable in every aspect possible, from making us homemade dinner to providing excellent conversation and company. Not to mention, their little dog, Sasha, is a plus in making this place more like home. Highly recommended! Will definitely come back if we head into Fort Plains again anytime in the near future.

Mark2016-03-28T00:00:00Z

Great accommodation with a wonderful host. Great food and conversation. The place is very comfortable and quiet. Big plus with the shades to keep the light out of the bedroom!

Melanie2016-12-05T00:00:00Z

Brendan an Tony don't like to brag about it, but the house has a historical marker out front! I only point it out because it highlights that this really is a beautiful and prominent old house, and it's been carefully maintained and effectively updated. Brendan and Tony are friendly and helpful hosts. The Blue Room is spacious, nicely decorated and furnished, and has a very comfortable queen bed. There's no A/C, but the window fan was more than adequate even on the August nights I was there. If I have any quibble, it's that the room didn't have a 3-prong (grounded) electrical outlet, so I couldn't charge my laptop in the room. I didn't really need it, and I'm sure Brendan and Tony would have let me use one elsewhere in the house if it were an issue. Finally, the town is a real find—I was in the area for Gilmmerglass Opera, about 30min. south, and I was booking late, so this was as close as I could get. But Fort Plain is a nice town right on the Mohawk River Canal, and well worth the visit.

Paul2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Brendan was very friendly and accessible, making sure we knew that we had access to the entire house. We sat and watched the Olympics together. A great stay.

Steven2016-08-20T00:00:00Z

Brendan made us feel welcome before we had even arrived and generously shared his food, drink and stories throughout our short stay. Always willing to help, Brendan went the extra mile to ensure our stay was as enjoyable as possible. The house is beautiful, well kept, and located in a quintessential small American Town. We would love to stay again next time we are diving through the States.

Brendan was super welcoming at his beautiful Victorian home. We didn't get much of a chance to explore the town but it looks like there are some stunning houses to check out. If Brendan offers dinner, take him up on it! The room was clean, comfortable and the mattress was great. Loved the shutters.

Heather2015-11-05T00:00:00Z

We stayed just one night in Brendan and Tony's place, wish we could have stayed longer (we will be back!). They are the friendliest loveliest hosts! We arrived to a Canadian flag flying above the porch where we had a drink and chatted and decided to all go out for dinner together. We went to a fantastic brewery for dinner (Ommagang) and they stopped in Cooperstown to show us the Main Street there too. Tony and Brendan were so generous with their time and space and friendship, we couldn't have asked for better hosts. The bed in the blue room was unbelievably comfortable. There were bagels and coffee and fruit and more conversation in the morning. Their little dog Sasha is adorable and friendly too. We will definitely come back for some antiquing!! Highly recommend.

Two twin beds may just been the most comfortable beds in the Greene House Inn. On the Southwest corner of this grand Victorian, it's right across the hall one of the shared bathrooms. It adjoins via a closet hall to our Blue Room. Great for families.

I thought it was great. They were very accommodating and friendly. Conversations were intellectual and I thought they went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. A new kind of muffins each morning and a lot of thoughtfulness in the day to day (changing our towels out, etc.). Met neighbors and other guests in our stay, which made it feel homey. These guys really love doing this, clearly!

This is a charming Victorian home with even more charming hosts, the room was like very with very high quality beds. Brendan baked us muffins in the morning and loaded us up for our bike trip. It is a 5 minute walk from The Table, which is one of the best Restaurants in the region. If you are traveling the Erie Canal Trailway, you will not find a more convenient or delightful stop, where you will make new friends.

Patricia2017-07-15T00:00:00Z

We had a great time at Brendan and Tony's. It was exactly what we needed after a long day of travel! A chance to play catch with my son, and some delicious homemade chili for dinner!

Brendan and Tony went above and beyond for us. They included things like the perfect dinner recommendation Making sure the TV was on for our favorite show. Great conversation. Delicious Morning baked goods. And to top it off, a convenient meeting place when they discovered I left an important item. Like I said ,Above and beyond. I will stay again. Oh yes. And the flags!!!

On the National Register of Historic Places, built in 1886, a true display of craftmanship. Beautiful views of the valley. Close to NYS Thruway, Cooperstown & Saratoga. Clean, comfortable and original. A beauty.

Comfortable Queen Anne Victorian with lovely wrap around porch. Second floor balcony. Pleasant & quiet. Close to village for walking or biking to local eateries/cocktails and the Erie Canal.

The house is beautiful and historic. Tom and Susan were so friendly. I hope to get to stay here again.

Troy2015-08-17T00:00:00Z

The house itself is incredible. So much character! I used this house as a place to stay for the baseball hall of fame ceremony and it was perfect. The 30 minute drive to Cooperstown is worth it because you get to drive on scenic highways. Everything between Fort Plain and Cooperstown is beautiful! Sue and Tom are amazing hosts. They provide everything you need to crash at their place. The room was clean and spacious. The welcome package was a nice surprise and the cookies were delicious! They also gave great suggestions on food in town. Definitely listen to their recommendations! I can't wait to plan my next Hall of Fame trip just so I can stay in this house again. It was seriously the coolest place ever! Thanks again!!!

Justin2016-07-25T00:00:00Z

This property well exceeds what was advertised. The home's charm was topped only by the charm of the hosts. Terrific room, very comfortable. There is literally nothing the hosts could have done to make my stay more pleasurable. I would love to stay here again and plan to do so on my next visit to nearby Cooperstown.

The home is on the historical list. It is over 130 years old with beautiful hardwood floors throughout. It has character and charm. It is completely renovated with cable tv, and wifi. The attic is finished and has a double bed and single bed as well.
The home is not childproof for toddlers. My home is 26 miles from Cooperstown, Ommengang Brewery and within one mile from the NY thruway. Lovely antique shops in town with places to eat in walking distance. No smoking inside. No pets.

The original stain glass windows and front door have been preserved.
The large backyard is great for soccer or kickball or just relaxing. A table and chairs will be provided to eat outside if you like.

My home is 26 miles from Cooperstown where the Baseball Hall of Fame is located. I am close to Amsterdam and Sharon Springs. If you want a road trip you can drive to Niagara Falls, Boston or outlet malls. In town, there are lovely places to eat and several antique shops which are in walking distance from my home. There are many historical sites to see nearby as well. We are close to Beardslee Castle, and Patchwork Meadows. I can recommend several things to do if you do not already have an agenda.

The house was very clean and and had lots of amenities in case you forgot something. Our family had a wonderful weekend!

John2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Theresa's home is an ideal place to stay when you want to see the area or go to Cooperstown for Baseball Hall of Fame induction like we did. Theresa is so accommodating and gracious. Her beds were perfect for up to seven and she set out a wonderful selection of breakfast choices. We didn't have time to see more of Canajorie, but it was a lovely town. Highly recommend Theresa's home.

The house was immaculate. Theresa is a great host and added extra touches to make sure our stay was a pleasant one.

Our stay at Lou's was flawless. Getting there was very easy and he was very accommodating. The mansion is beautiful and the separate apartment we stayed at had everything we needed. The mansion is surrounded by nature so our stay was very relaxing and soothing, the perfect weekend getaway to escape the city. Lou was a great host, very attentive and responsive. Would definitely stay at Lou's again.

Natalia2015-08-16T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful stay at Lou's place. The apartment was perfect for our one night stay. The property is gorgeous and we took a few nice long walks through the freshly trimmed trails. The pond is very pretty. We also loved seeing the chickens and dogs on the property. I would definitely stay here again. Louis was a gracious and helpful host.

Kang Wei2015-12-28T00:00:00Z

Louis greeted us as soon as we arrived and showed us the apartment rooms and all around the property. The venue is a great value since the rooms are open and can accommodate more people than a standard hotel would. The place is clean and inviting There are many things to do while not sleeping in the comfortable beds; there is a pool table, a patio to enjoy the outdoors as well as acreage to wander and explore that has ponds with baby ducks, open fields, small hills, a small forest with croaking frogs, and birds. Louis has two pet/retriever dogs that love friendly strangers and welcomed us with careless abandon. I doubt that we could have made a better choice. Thank You Louis

Jim2016-07-07T00:00:00Z

Lou was a friendly, responsive, helpful host. Made me feel welcome and helped me get settled. Loved using the hot tub, but it was a bit old, and not in full working order. Needed Lou's help to uncover and cover the tub. Great view over countryside while relaxing. His property has very nice mowed walking trails, which provided good birding. Note: He has chickens, and those plus local birds are noisy early in the morning, in case sleeping in is important.

Our home is in a rural setting, but very centrally located. We are 7 miles north of Sharon Springs. We are 3 miles south of the NYS Thruway (exit 29) and the village of Canajoharie. We are 25 minutes from Cooperstown along beautiful country roads. Wee are nestled between the Catskills and Adirondacks along the Mohawk River/Erie Canal. This is perfect for a couple on a getaway, families, or those looking to check out area festivals, and/or Cooperstown. We are also 45 minutes from Saratoga.

With beds for 8, with our two beds and two sleeper sofas, we also have 2 single cots, and 2 queen air mattresses for your use. Therefore we can really sleep 12+. We have a large "play room" upstairs with a Wii and a DVD player. Downstairs, we have a large screen tv and a DVD player with a Direct TV receiver. There is also laundry on the first floor. There are two bedrooms and two baths. The kitchen is fully stocked.

This is a very rural setting with horse farms on either side of us.

A secluded rustic log cabin located on ~30-wooded acres in Marshville, NY. Beautiful views. Hiking on the property. Very pet friendly! Has a large pond stocked with bluegill, rock bass, etc. also suitable for swimming & small boats.

A rustic log cabin located on 30-wooded acres in Marshville (4-miles outside of Canajoharie, NY). The cabin has one large bedroom in an upstairs loft (accessible via a spiral staircase) and a small guest bedroom downstairs as well as a full-size pull-out couch in the living room, to sleep a total of five adults. It also features modern stainless steel appliances, full clawfoot tub for soaking with showerhead if needed, wood stove and electric heat. Large deck barbecue.

The property is great for animal watching, and birding, with trails for hiking. Very dog friendly.

Amazing place! Joe and Tolga are awesome. Spent the weekend here with my girlfriend and two large dogs. We couldn't have asked for a better place to get out of NYC. It fit everyone comfortably, amazing location, the views from the deck are great! Setting everything up with Tolga and Joe was very easy. The cabin is equipped with utensils and everything you need for you stay. Towels, sheets, wood burning stove, working grill, seating on the deck, fire pit outside, nice yard. Lovely cabin which made for a great weekend. Thank you to guys, we intend to comeback with a larger party.

We had a wonderful time at Mad Duck Pond! Its really private and peaceful, and the cabin is totally beautiful and pleasant to stay in. The pond was wonderful and suited for swimming. Our dog had an amazing time running around the property. The host was communicative and helpful. If your staying there you should plan on brining your own water for drinking, as the water appears to be sulfur. Totally recommend this place and I hope to return soon!

Veda2016-07-16T00:00:00Z

Exactly as described. Wonderful getaway, perfect host (in the few minutes that we met). The place is very clean and cozy. Quiet and secluded, but nice towns nearby (ft. plain).

Justin2015-10-13T00:00:00Z

Joe was very friendly but this listing boasts a lock box style check in for privacy. I have 2 dogs, one afraid of children. I let him know I was set and didn't need him for check in. He insists on coming over (to explain operation of the wood burning stove) and brought his entire family without warning, kids included. Our first night, Tolga showed up right after the sun went down, completely unannounced. Seeing as there aren't any blinds on the windows, this is very inappropriate. The patio was unfinished and not as pictured which was a disappointment. The cabin was clean with the exception of dead bees inside the house on all window sills. Also, hornets swarmed inside the house as soon as the rain stopped. When I contacted Joe after killing 5 hornets, still with 8 swarming around the house, he told me to "just keep killing them". I would've been happier if he had a more productive response. We had to leave a day early due to the amount of hornets inside the house and were not compensated for that day. I wanted to enjoy this cabin, but unfortunately didn't.

Peter2017-05-25T00:00:00Z

The Mad Duck pond is a beautiful cabin located in a very quiet place. It's cozy and clean, the wireless works perfectly and you can easily find in the house everything you need. The hosts Tolga and Erica are definitely super-hosts We had a great time in their place and I want to say thank you once again!

Paola2017-06-09T00:00:00Z

We had a good time at Tolga's cabin! It was unique, interesting, and full of surprises. Definitely a place for adventuresome adults. I wouldn't bring a young child there again, as there were places where she was not safe on her own (in the loft or spiral staircase, for example, or on the unfinished back porch). My teenagers had fun playing board games in the evening and appreciated the interesting space. The cabin is in a beautiful setting, and we enjoyed sitting on the bench by the pond watching the frogs and birds. Tolga was very welcoming, helpful, and friendly.

One wall separates you from our harvest of organic hay and livestock! The Milkhouse is an easy-access place to stop en route to your destination, or choose to make our farm your destination! This is a rustic 2-level gem built sustainably with as much reclaimed, reused, and recycled material as we could dig up. Close to I-90, Adirondack State Parks and trailheads, and surrounded by lakes. Enjoy the atmosphere of our serene barnyard and visit the animals at your leisure.

A quaint 450 square foot converted milkhouse that offers a unique experience as well as the modern conveniences of running water (cold only) and electricity. Walls created from reclaimed barn materials, antique windows, beds and door, a rescued firehouse spiral staircase, vintage fridge/sink/range unit! Full of charm, and a huge departure from a conventional hotel room. Sheep, chickens, cows and hogs are your neighbors. Enjoy lovely valley views from every side.

Mark and Lindsay let me book last minute, and we're very accommodating on my flexible check in. I adored this place. All sorts of barn materials have been reclaimed to build it. The old wood stove is delightful. Sure, there's no shower, but I heated up some water and had a little washcloth bath. The bathroom is thoughtfully appointed with toiletries. I loved listening to all the barnyard sounds as I lay in bed. The animals are a riot, especially the Mrs. Pig! Lindsay brought me some breakfast materials and home laid eggs. If you're looking for a truley unique Airbnb experience, this is the place to stay.

Hidden gem, incredible rustic cabin on a beautiful farm. Mark and Lindsay were amazing hosts, very generous, easy-going and friendly. We had drinks on the porch watching the sunset, met some of the farm animals and made a cozy fire in the wood stove at night. The next day we took eggs and meat home with us. We had a wonderful stay and hope to come back again!

Haley2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

Great experience, we liked the farm life and the wonderful view.

Sagi2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

We had a delightful and adventurous experience staying in Mark's and Lindsay's Milkhouse. It was wonderful to be part of a real farm family, to sleep adjacent to the barn where the animals lived, and to hear the roosters crow in the morning. The farm is located on a hill with a view of some of New York's beautiful green, rolling, pastoral landscapes. Mark and Lindsay and their children are delightful company in every way. Mark and Lindsay are patient in answering city guests' naive questions about agriculture and farm life. This was a thoroughly satisfying experience and we hope to return some day soon.

The 1894 Kingsbury House is conveniently located between Saratoga and Cooperstown in a quiet village 10 miles from the NYS Thruway.
Enjoy the warm fireplace, rocking chairs on the porch, a nap in the garden and a homemade gourmet breakfast.

The 1894 Kingsbury House is a large Victorian Stick-style house on a deep village lot with a beautiful carriage house at the rear of the property. In our 23 years of stewardship we have restored many features and fixtures original to the building (we are only the fourth family to live here). William Morris wallpaper in the living room, Bradbury & Bradbury wallpaper in the dining room, several lighting fixtures original to the construction of the house and original White Oak and Chestnut woodwork give the rooms a comfortable "lived in" feel. The wood burning fireplace is used in all but the hottest months of the year.

The entire village of St. Johnsville is in the process of becoming a historic district listed on the New York State and National Registers of Historic Places. Directly across the street is the lovely 1909 Reaney Memorial Library and Museum, an 'old curiosity shop' kind of place with something for everyone. The village marina (on the Mohawk River) is just blocks away and the area abounds in historical sites from the American Revolutionary War. Main Street and Bridge Street offer small shops and eateries.
We are minutes from the cross-state Erie Canal Bike Path which runs from Buffalo to Albany and just a short drive to the Adirondack State Park which offers great hiking opportunities.
Neighboring communities offer interesting and unique shops for day-trippers and museums for art and local history.

Bob and his wife are kind, wonderful and gracious. The space was described accurately. The breakfasts were great. First morning, there was a skillet omelet and fruit. Second morning was blue berry pancakes with sausages. (yummy) We stayed in St. Johnsville during the 2016 Induction Weekend at the Baseball Hall of Fame. All of the hotels were booked for this event in March. There were 50,000 at the Induction. My son and I stayed at Bob's home. Would definitely return again. thanks again Bob and Ina! - Arnie and Michael

Arnie 2016-07-26T00:00:00Z

It was a pleasure to stay with Robert and Ina. They have an immaculate bed and breakfast, and run it like one. There's everything you need there. They were super responsive, very friendly, and also gave us our space. We stayed for one night to attend a wedding a few miles up the road at Beardsley Castle. They helpfully gave us directions, and we're fine with us returning late from the wedding. They asked us what time we would like to have breakfast, and served a delicious egg casserole. They were also happy to accommodate food preferences. All in all, we had a great stay and would definitely stay again if we were in the area.

Alex2016-08-07T00:00:00Z

My wife and I had a terrific experience here with our hosts and our room. We arrived and were treated to a tour and brief history of the house and rear carriage house and Bob's woodworking shop. We joined our hosts after dinner for relaxed talk before a warming fire. Our bed was most comfortable. Breakfast was a real pleasure, Bob is a great cook.

Johnsville is obviously a rural community--so perfect for those seeking peace and quiet. It's 30-40 minutes from Cooperstown, most of it over the main road, Highway 80. Bob and Ina are gracious hosts who did everything possible to make us welcome. Their house is a late Victorian gem, lovingly preserved and meticulously maintained with period furnishings. Breakfasts are abundant and varied with homemade quiche and scones part of Bob's culinary repertoire. Altogether good value.

Richard2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

Our hots, Bob and Ina, were gracious and helpful, making us feel at home right away. The room was pleasant, with a really comfy bed and crisp, cotton sheets. The shower was great in the spacious bathroom, and breakfast was delicious and fresh. Although the house lacks some curb appeal, I know they are working on that. This is a relatively new venture for them, and they are doing a great job!

Debra2016-06-14T00:00:00Z

Robert and Ina welcomed my husband and me very warmly, showing us to our room and all the amenities they made available to us. They were very attentive to us, happily answering our questions regarding their beautifully preserved century home, the history of the town and were able to offer suggestions of restaurants in the area. I think, though, the best part of our stay was the phenomenal breakfast Robert made for us. His quiche was out of this world. We will definitely make a point of visiting Robert and Ina again.

A converted school bus offers a cozy stay on Rise farm. Enjoy the quiet of the country and the sounds of nature as you drift off to sleep.

This space is located on a five acre farm located in the Mohawk valley. It is a short drive to many historic towns and attractions which include waterfalls, national parks and Herkimer diamond mines. I enjoy the quiet of the country and sounds of nature. This is a great place to relax and recharge from the faster paced life of the cities.

This was an amazing place to stay. The hosts are so welcoming and it is just a beautiful area. We booked last minute and found great things to do in the area like caverns and waterfall hikes. Best get away we have had. My partner is about 6 foot and had no problem in the bus moving around or doing things which was something we worried about. 10/10 plan on coming back to this oasis

Was a neat experience - cool remodeling of the bus, comfy bed, quiet & beautiful location. Would recommend if you're looking for a simple place to crash in Fort Plain.

Caitlin2017-08-24T00:00:00Z

The bus was a retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Eric and Jennifer were so friendly and helpful. Would definitely come again.

David 2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Friendly and comfortable stay for 2 in a beautiful location!

Taryn2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

My boyfriend and I had a blast staying at Jennifer and Eric's property! The school bus is the perfect getaway with gorgeous sprawling nature in all directions. It's far more spacious on the bus than it appears in photos and the bed is super comfy--even my 6'1" partner had a great night's sleep. Eric gave us perfect directions to hiking and waterfalls as well as how to get into town where we had an awesome meal. Lastly, their friendly dog, Gypsy, was an absolute dream come true! Highly recommended!

Adrienne2017-08-08T00:00:00Z

A quiet little spot to recharge. Love experiencing new minimalist ways of living. Definitely check out the waterfalls nearby!!

This is a cool and relaxing little getaway in a beautiful part of the state. Cozy, inviting, and fun for the adventurous! A great foray into the joys of solar power and spring water for the uninitiated, and a gem of a stay for those with more experience in off grid life. Eric is very friendly and helpful-- gave us great recommendations for some local hiking with beautiful waterfalls when we got there . We look forward to visiting again!

Ben2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Eric and Jennifer are incredibly gracious and friendly hosts. We took their suggestion to go to nearby water falls and caves which were incredible!The unit is very unique and cozy, and is in a beautiful location. Would stay again and definitely recommend.

Phillip2017-08-12T00:00:00Z

Eric was a wonderful host! Upon a late arrival he took the time to answer any questions we had. After a comfortable sleep and a nice walk around the beautiful land, he gave us several great recommendations on places to see while we were passing through the area.

Rent this 3 bedroom 3 bath home weekly or monthly for your vacation. House sits on top of a hill and has breath taking views, amazing sunrises from the master suite and sunsets from the greatroom. Home has octagon shape great room with open timber ceiling, large indoor fireplace. Very large and great kitchen for your cooking.

We had an incredible time here. The photos and descriptions don't even do it justice. Already trying to plan a trip back! Thank you Amos!

Benjamin2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

The pictures don't do the view and home justice. Amos was very easy to work with and I'd definitely recommend this home!

Jesse2017-08-22T00:00:00Z

Perfect country house for a family gathering, we stayed for 4 awesome nights. Very easy to clean, great appliances, double dishwasher!! Hot tub is best at 100F, starry skies and nothing but fresh air, peace and quiet. As this is a house in the country, we did see a few big spiders which we managed to exterminate. If you have dogs or todlers keep in mind of country bugs. This is a five star country home for sure.

Karen2017-04-14T00:00:00Z

This place has a _fabulous_ kitchen that the owner should probably post more pictures of, it's fabulous. Highly recommend this place for chefs, though it does only have the normal appliances. Hot tub was great, just off a covered porch in the backyard. In view of the fire pit. Grill worked just fine, plenty of outdoor seating between the porch swing, some lawn chairs, and the firepit benches. Awesome great room. Great projector room (which could probably use a curtain for daytime movies). Roomy master suite. Slightly awkward lack of door to the master suite, but it's way out of the way & down a hallway. Plenty of bathrooms and towels. Washer and dryer work great. Nice 2 car garage. If I was going here again I might bring... probably just some extension cords/power strips. There were some places we wished that there were plugs that there just weren't. I'd also bring some more DVDs/Blurays/CDs, as we were hoping to stream movie night and the wifi just wasn't good enough for that. I might also bring some speakers for outside by the hot tub. But that's what happens when introverts go to the woods lol.

Katharine2017-05-30T00:00:00Z

Beautiful home. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Loved everything about the place.

My place is close to Glimmerglass Opera, Cooperstown NY, Little Falls, NY.
This room offers a luxury full size poster bed, dresser and walk in closet.

Vaerie was great. We were running late and she waited up to greet us. The breakfast was delicious especially her home made potatoes with fresh mushrooms and peppers. The home could be a landmark! Very well kept with original detail . The peaceful quiet setting and her truly caring heart made our stay for the Hall of Fame events that much more special!

Emily2016-07-25T00:00:00Z

Valerie and Leo were very accommodating. The house was beautiful, much like the countryside. Breakfast was fantastic each morning. We stayed during baseball induction weekend and it's an easy drive to Cooperstown.

Our historic home is located in south central NY and in the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains. The rural setting provides relaxation, wildlife sightings and bird watching opportunities. We live in the home with our three cats. The orchard provides plenty of fruit for sale at two local Farmers Markets. All are welcome in our home.

Our farm is in a rural setting. The Village of Dolgeville is 6 miles away and is home to the Lyndon Lyon African Violet greenhouse with over 50,000 violets for sale. The Village of St Johnsville is also 6 miles from the farm and is home to the Crystal Grove Mine, a public site were you can dig for the famous Herkimer Diamonds during warmer months. Also in St Johnsville is JR's Auction with a weekly auction on Tuesday evening and auctioning general merchandise, household items and antiques starting at 5pm. We have Amish neighbors, and arrangements can be made for you to purchase their homemade Amish baked goods. Dark clear skies at night provide excellent opportunities for stargazing. Arrangements can be made upon request for a visit with a local licensed massage therapist. The Erie Canal bike path is nearby. In winter, enjoy the peacefulness of deep snow, bird watching and chocolate chip cookies baking in the kitchen. The Fulton and Montgomery counties provide over 400 miles of snowmobile trails.

Colleen and Dean are super warm and welcoming! Be prepared for excellent conversation. Their home is both lovely and full of character, and the three cats complete the homey feeling. We were treated to much more than we expected. We rented out both bedrooms, and had a shared bathroom with an antique clawfoot tub. Pretty much, we were given an entire floor, and every inch of it was spotless, pristine, and perfectly gorgeous. Our hosts made us breakfast from the freshest of ingredients, many grown right there on the farm. We admit that we got a later start for the next leg of our trip entirely because we enjoyed Colleen & Dean's company so much. We highly recommend these hosts!

This was a wonderful retreat for our family. Colleen and Dean were wonderful hosts and amazingly accommodating for our two young children. We would highly recommend their home for anyone looking for a quiet getaway with gorgeous countryside to explore.

We have read the already-posted nine 5-star reviews of Colleen and Dean's lovely farmhouse and would like to add our own endorsement of the high level of hospitality provided by them. We were the only guests and, therefore, the potential disadvantage of the shared and dated bathroom was not an issue. During our three-night / two-day stay, we went to Glimmerglass twice and found the 60-minute drive, along winding country roads, to be delightful. We also visited Johnson Hall, in Johnstown, and the Oriskany Battlefield, near Rome, on the 240th anniversary of the Battle of Oriskany, August 6, 1777. Colleen and Dean's beautiful farmhouse is a perfect place from which to explore the historic Mohawk Valley and the story so well told by Walter D. Edmonds in "Drums along the Mohawk" and coming home to their warm reception in the evening was an added bonus. Jonathan and Marnie Marler

Upon our arrival on Motorcycles, Dean rolled out the proverbial red carpet ! The forecast called for rain and he kindly offered to drive us out for dinner, which we all enjoyed together and he shared his vast knowledge of the area with us. He went out of his way to make us feel at home and accommodate special requests. It was very interesting to learn about his beautiful home which was built in 1850. He prepared us a hearty breakfast which was perfect to have us commence our journey at the base of the famous Adirondacks. This is a stay we will not forget - thank you Dean !

Christian2017-06-19T00:00:00Z

We've stayed at about a dozen Airbnb places and this may be our favorite. Beautiful area, historic home, friendly host. We will probably come again for a quiet long weekend. Highly recommended!

Jordan2017-07-25T00:00:00Z

What a pleasure it was to stay with Colleen and Dean! They are so warm and welcoming, and we sat on the porch with iced tea when we arrived! Their historic house is beautiful, and they have many interesting and unique antiques and artifacts displayed. Our room had a bed from Pakistan, along with other items from that country, from the time that Colleen and Dean lived there. Most of all, I admired their kind and caring nature, this couple has heart!!! Colleen has helped others for years through her nursing career, and now both Colleen and Dean help their Amish neighbors. They drive them where they need to go, do shopping for them, and give nursing advice. They have only lived in St. Johnsonville for four years, but it is obvious they are already an important part of the community. Finally, breakfast was incredible! We loved the egg, cheese, and vegetable casserole, and the fresh made Amish bread was outstanding, accompanied by the homemade jams and jellies this talented couple makes. Delicious!!!! Attention bicyclists! It is not too far from the Erie Canal bike trail, and there is great bicycling in the area!!!! A wonderful place to stay!

Camp Garoga offers high quality accommodations year round for guests. Located in the foothills of the southern Adirondacks and bordering 400+ acres, Garoga(Bear or Moose Cabin) offers so much more of an experience than a hotel could ever offer!

Two cabins are available at Camp Garoga. So if our calendar shows no vacancy please inquire. If you are interested in the cabin with the jacuzzi, please let me know when inquiring. I do have other cabins as well, with jacuzzis.
Think of Camp Garoga as a log cabin condo. Meticulous and affordable(priced just higher than hotels in town yet offering SO MUCH MORE!). We take great pride in owning one of the 3rd nicest cabin accommodations around. **FYI, we also hold the #1 and #2 positions :) The cabins are connected back to back to each other with Moose Cabin facing west and Bear Cabin facing east. In regards to amenities both cabins are completely separate from each other with their own driveways, private screen porch, fire-pit and gas grill. The likelihood of seeing the other guests is slim(unless you're both hiking the private 400 wooded acres with trails that start at your doorstep). Moose Cabin now offers a BRAND NEW 4 person jacuzzi! Please inquire about availability. There is an additional $35 jacuzzi fee for a 2-3 night stay and an $50 additional fee for 4-7 night stay. This fee is not secured through Airbnb and is due on arrival. We think that it's a wonderful addition to the cabin and are excited to have finally installed it.
**NEW** Because of a high demand of guests looking for snowshoe rentals we have purchased some high-end SNOWSHOES that are now available for rental. Please inquire about availability($10/weekend per set. $20/wk per set). A liability/replacement waiver will need to be signed on arrival to cover lost or damaged snowshoes.
Some guests have mentioned the quality of the water and have expressed concern(including 2 older guests who left a gas burner on for 2 DAYS STRAIGHT without a flame and blamed the odor on the tap water. I can't believe they made it out alive, yet never mentioned it until I informed them that housekeeping nearly "dropped dead" when she walked in to clean 2 hours after they left. Please know your carcinogens, people :/ ) Well water isn't like city water and does have a different taste, but the water is VERY safe to drink(as most people in the area use it) and is excellent for your skin and hair. If you prefer not to use the tap water for drinking, we do supply an unlimited supply of fresh drinking water(which is delicious)
Pets are not allowed in any of our cabins.
Character, warmth, and charm are the cornerstones behind the very idea of Camp Garoga. We wanted to create an inviting, cozy, and AFFORDABLE space for guests who wish to explore ALL of what the Adirondack's can provide. Whether you're looking to enjoy a long romantic weekend or a week long vacation for the your adventurous family, Camp Garoga offer so much more than a hotel ever could and it won't disappoint.
Upon pulling in the driveway you will notice the care and attention to detail starting with the traditional rustic adirondack style twig work rails on the screened in porch. Reminiscent of the historic "great camps" from the onset of Adirondack lodging. The comfortable screened in porch offers privacy as well as a sitting area for reading and relaxing out doors and a picnic table for any meal of the day or playing one of the many board games provided. Most cabins in the area overlook the importance of the adirondack screen porch, offering you solace from the springtime bugs and nighttime insects that would otherwise be attracted to your evening reading light. We have added 2 porch ceiling fans for your added comfort.
Once you enter through the double French doors, nothing will disappoint! From the light balsam fragrance and immaculate accommodations, to the handmade soap and the natural pine woodwork we have created a cabin masterpiece. And it HAS to be clean! Our cleaning staff is spot on with keeping the cabins looking brand new each and everytime. Our guests continuously feel that they're the first ever guests and feel instantly at home.
The bedrooms and living room space are ULTRA inviting with their unique cabin decor, clean linens, and quaint reading spaces. With the fireplace being the heart of the cabin.
Garoga borders over 400 wooded acres for your immediate outdoor needs right from your doorstep. Particularly enjoyable would be a morning walk along the trails with a cup of coffee or tea. Let the kids loose to enjoy the woodland or large grassy backyard with fire pit(some wood provided). The occasional bench along the trails offers a comfortable and quiet resting place for reading a good book or just taking in the private forest surroundings. Autumn and winter walks are particularly enjoyable! And when you've worked up a good chill, the cabin awaits your arrival for a warm fireside nap or conversation. Sit on the hearth with its bearskin rug for instant warmth.
No detail is overlooked!
Not only was Garoga built by the owners, but the rustic details inside are original as well. Specifically built for the cabins in a small wood shop on site(in the historic Adirondack great camp tradition), nearly every Adirondack inspired table, sign, and mirror was hand crafted by your host. A genuine love of the Adirondack style is pleasantly obvious throughout both the Bear and Moose cabins.
Each cabin boasts 20 foot cathedral ceilings with natural pine woodwork, a loft, skylights, and antler chandeliers. Beautifully finished pine plank flooring hand engraved with bear paw prints or oak leaves throughout(depending on which cabin you're in) add unexpected charm. Comfortable bedding and cozy new furniture offers you a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
If you enjoy coffee or tea, Garoga has that covered! We supply as much as you need.
If special arrangements need to be made in regards to birthdays, anniversaries, or even marriage proposals(we've had our share), your host is ALWAYS there to help make it happen flawlessly. Don't be afraid to ask.
Our reviews on other sites speak for themselves as guests return year after year, season after season to the special accommodations of Camp Garoga. Come be a part of our growing family of regulars at this one of a kind cabin experience.
Where as I require guests meet with me upon your arrival, my preference is to leave you alone to enjoy the coziness of the cabin. Texting is the best way to accomplish that. Most guests text me periodically throughout the day for special attention, or many times just to say hello (go figure). I want to be reachable at all times of your stay but I don't want to be 'all up in your grill'. Unless it's your gas grill and the propane needs to be replenished. Because in that case, you want me up in your grill.
The cabin is located in a rural area without much foot traffic. It is a very safe place to enjoy the outdoors. Although there are bears in the area, the odds of you running into one is very rare. In 13 years I've seen 3 and only one was by the cabin.
Rt 29, 29A, 10, and 30 are the best roads to get you to where you want to go. Both 29's run east and west, while 10 and 30 run north to south.
Some firewood is provided for your outdoor fire pit, but if you plan on excessive use(which is fine), there are local roadside places to purchase extra campfire wood.
We charge a $100 premium for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. We require a 3 night minimum for any holiday weekend.

The cabin borders 400+ acres for your leisure enjoyment with marked trails and benches along the way. There isn't anything remotely touristy about this location which allows you to be free of interruption. Camp Garoga is a high quality cabin experience at hotel prices and is a great location for complete relaxation or a "home base" for day trips. There are plenty of hiking trails within a short driving distance.
